Overview
Tarpan for families in Shivpur
Tarpan means ‘to satisfy’ or ‘to offer contentment’. In this rite, the performer offers water mixed with black sesame, holding kusha grass, while remembering departed family members by name. It is one of the simplest ancestral rites, yet traditionally regarded as deeply meaningful.
Shivpur is on the western side of Varanasi, beyond the busier central areas. Once more semi-rural, it has grown into a residential area with new colonies, independent houses, apartment buildings, schools and markets.
ॐ पितृभ्यः स्वधायिभ्यः स्वधा नमः॥

Can I get a Hindi speaking North Indian Pandit for Tarpan in Shivpur?

Tarpan is traditionally offered in the morning, especially during Pitru Paksha, on Amavasya and as part of shraddha.
